The (not really, but close enough) official goon response is “Scamming is still allowed, it just means you have to scam in a convo and not in the official recuitment channel, i.e what everyone does anyway.”

HAHAHA, Train Reading Comp. to I first.
BTW Scamming isnt allowed in alot of offical channels like the help channel.

Hmm, Test tears taste like Goon tears, interesting.

....as if 10,058 Goon voices cried out and were suddenly silenced.

Scams in official OOC channels both ingame and on the forum where banable pretty much since the game started. Move along, nothing to see here.

If you take all the sand out of the box, only the cat poo will remain.

Ahhh fair game, a slightly safer way for new players to find friends, while allowing Goons and others to scam outside of the channel, so lulz will still be had.

Nothing to see here folks. Move along.

I wonder how CCP rule on intent:
"Your honour, my client posted in the recruitment channel with the intention of recruiting new members to our illustrious corp. Upon commencing communication with the plaintiff, my client realised she had come across a player with dubious intellect who repeatedly attempted to use ingame assets to promote his own value. My client proceeded to invite the plaintiff to a personal channel, where the plaintiff continued to display a sense of superiority and entitlement. It was during this discussion, my client made the decision to teach the plaintiff a valuable life lesson. I would strongly encourage your honour to dismiss all charges, as the defendant has followed the rules as laid out by the relevant GMs to the letter."

Looks like it's time to get some more Goons hired at CCP.

CCP teaching manners inside the recruitment channel would go a long way towards me actaully useing it. Didn't see alot of scams there really while I lurked there for a bit. But I suppose it is nice.

No way. That will cause griefers to feel as if they are not wanted and they will not subscribe.

Scamming a player in his/her first week in EVE has a high chance of that player leaving.

This is the real world. Unsubbing means loss of funds for CCP. If that sounds too "PVP flaggish" to you. Then sorry but that is life. Especially in an age where 15 USD a month can count.

somehow I think theyre aiming at the proven much larger casual player base that may yet be untapped for this game, given its fierce reputation.
